Explanatory Notes:

1. Any member entitled to attend, speak and vote at the AGM is entitled to appoint one or more proxies (who need not be a member of the Company) to attend, speak and vote in his/her place. If you wish to appoint a person other than the Chairman, please insert the name and address of your chosen proxy holder in the space provided (see reverse). A member may appoint more than one proxy to attend and vote at the meeting provided each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares held by that member. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter in the box next to the proxy holder's name (see reverse) the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a member, the full voting entitlement for that designated account). Where a poll is taken at the AGM, a member, present in person or proxy, holding more than one share is not required to cast all their votes in the same way.
2. To appoint more than one proxy, an additional proxy form(s) may be obtained by contacting the Registrar's helpline on +353 (0) 1 431 9832 or you may photocopy the reverse only of this form. Please indicate in the box next to the proxy holder's name (see reverse) the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate by ticking the box provided if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. All forms must be signed and should be returned together in the same envelope.
3. To be effective, the completed Form of Proxy together with any power of attorney or other authority under which it is executed, or a notarially certified copy thereof, must be deposited with the Registrar of the Company before the deadline set out above. A shareholder wishing to appoint a proxy by electronic means may do so on the Registrar's website www.eproxyappointment.com. Details of the requirements are set out in the box above. A shareholder who wishes to appoint more than one proxy by electronic means must contact the Registrar by sending an email to clientservices@computershare.ie

Kindly Note: This form is issued only to the addressee(s) and is specific to the unique designated account printed hereon. This personalised form is not transferable between different (i) account holders; or (ii) uniquely designated accounts. The Company and Computershare Investor Services (Ireland) Limited accept no liability for any instruction that does not comply with these conditions.

1. The 'Vote Withheld' option overleaf is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a 'Vote Withheld' is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.
2. Pursuant to Section 1105 of the Companies Act 2014 and Regulation 14 of the Companies Act, 1990 of Ireland (Uncertificated Securities) Regulations 1996, entitlement to attend and vote at the AGM and the number of votes which may be cast thereat will be determined by reference to the Register of Members of the Company as at 6.00pm on 26 January 2020 (or in the case of an adjournment as at the close of business on the day which is two days before the date of the adjourned meeting). Changes to entries on the Register of Members after that time shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the AGM.
3. To appoint one or more proxies or to give an instruction to a proxy (whether previously appointed or otherwise) via the CREST system, CREST messages must be received by the issuer's agent (ID number 3RAS0) not later than 10.30am on 26 January 2020. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp generated by the CREST system) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message. The Company may treat as invalid a proxy appointment sent by CREST in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Companies Act, 1990 of Ireland (Uncertificated Securities) Regulations 1996.
4. The above is how your address appears on the Register of Members. If this information is incorrect please phone the Registrar's helpline on +353 (0) 1 431 9832 to request a change of address form or go to www.investorcentre.com/ie to use the online Investor Centre service.
